This driver adds sparc hypervisor watchdog support. The default
timeout is 60 seconds and the range is between 1 and
31536000 seconds. Both watchdog-resolution and
watchdog-max-timeout MD properties settings are supported.

Add a early_enable module parameter to the omap_wdt that starts the
watchdog on module insertion. The default value is 0 which does not
start the watchdog - which also does not change the behavior if the
parameter is not given.

The omap_wdt kernel driver also understands the nowayout module
parameter. This updates the watchdog-parameters.txt to reflect this fact.

On some hardware platforms, the it87_wdt watchdog resets the machine
despite the watchdog daemon running and writing to /dev/watchdog.
This is due to Consumer IR buffer underrun interrupts being used as
triggers to reset the timer. On some buggy hardware implementations
such as the iEi AFL-12A-N270 single-board computer, this method does
not work.
However, resetting the timer by writing its original timeout value in
its configuration register over and over again suppresses the unwanted
reboots.
Add a module option (nocir), 0 by default in order not to break existing
setups. Setting it to 1 enables the workaround.
Fixes bug #42801 <https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42801>.
Tested primarily on Linux 3.5.7, applies cleanly on Linux 3.13.5.

Add a driver for the hardware watchdogs in NVIDIA Tegra SoCs (Tegra30 and
later). This driver will configure one watchdog timer that will reset the
system in the case of a watchdog timeout.
This driver binds to the nvidia,tegra30-timer device node and gets its
register base from there.

Interrupt request doesn't use the right API: The TWD watchdog uses a per-cpu
interrupt (usually interrupt #30), and the GIC configuration should flag it as
such. With this setup, request_irq() should fail, and the right API is
request_percpu_irq(), together with enable_percpu_irq()/disable_percpu_irq().
Nothing ensures the userspace ioctl() will end-up kicking the watchdog on the
right CPU.
There are no users of this driver since a long time and it makes more sense to
get rid of it as nobody is looking to fix it.
In case somebody wakes up after this has been removed and needs it, please
revert this driver and pick these updates (These were never pushed to mainline):
